    Hosting your site on Dreamhost. They have a tool inside the control panel that enables you to do do such conversion on the fly by copy and pasting the code they provide.

    easy, I currently use ffmpeg on a server to do this but you can probably use ffmpeg-php, I think it will let you do the functions of ffmpeg in php. ffmpeg-php's site is ffmpeg-php(dot)sourceforge(dot)net
